I believe I've got a trigger based solution working.  Posted in 
sl-testing just a moment ago.

The script's Requires should be met by what they trigger against, so 
I've excluded /bin/bash and coreutils from its Requires list.

My testing seems to avoid the loop shown above (but it seems I was lucky 
and didn't hit it much before).

Can I get few external testers looking at:
  sl-release-7.0-2.1.sl7.x86_64.rpm
  yum-conf-sl7x-7.0-2.1.sl7.noarch.rpm
